From urban landscaping to paved driveways to walkways and retaining walls and patios, we can create a sustainable and beautiful hardscape in any climate for your property. Permanent structures such as natural stone or concrete paver patios require excavation to ensure the surface will rest on a sturdy and level base. As a result, water drains away from the home, and the area is free of obstacles that can get in the way of a new patio project (such as old stumps). In addition, patios are heavy in and of themselves: add the weight of a hot tub, outdoor kitchen, or outdoor fireplace, and a solid foundation is essential to the long-term structural integrity of the patio.
